1. [Video]

[The video comes on, and Taiwan's eyes look a little red-rimmed from crying, but she is trying to smile even so.] Ah, so... I-i'm not sure what the usual...way to... ah... [A pause while she visibly tries to keep from crying, her lip trembling somewhat] I know he wasn't here for [breath, a little hiccoughing kind of sound] very long, ( Read more... )

Oh wow! This gun thing is really neat! I haven't quite figured out how it works... I can't seem to take it apart or anything. But I've tested it on stuff and it seems pretty harmless to me.

Let's have fight with them or something! It'll be fun! Lloyd, you'll come too, right?

[He's baaaaack. The feed of all nearby communicators flickers to life and the rather dashing mug of the great Zelos Wilder glows on the screen. He's in the kitchen of Arborn Castle, lounging back in a chair (perhaps a bit too far, he really ought to be careful with guys like Yuri around who would just love to push him over) and eating an apple. In ( Read more... )

[Hey this idiot in red is on the screen. But he looks kind of..somber? And he seems to look tired, but he quickly plasters a grin]

Hey, so the sun's back, huh? Man I don't know about you guys but it was getting seriously hard to find my bed when it was that dark. Oh, I'm Lloyd by the way. For the new guys, don't worry too much, okay? [he just ( Read more... )

[Van had been expecting this the flash of warmth, the burst in light.  But there was something different this time.  There was a jewelry box...? Odd.  Maybe that was a way of the forces of fate to test him.  But that didn't matter, now.

[He stood bracing himself, as he leaned against the structure of the golden gate.Odd....]

How did I get he-[his ( Read more... )

[Sheena stands in the Golden Entranceway looking around clearly confused. She doesn't seem to realize that the small communicator she put in her bra for safe keeping was on, recording and broadcasting her voice.] Hey, uhm, is there anyone here that can tell me where I am? HEY! I can't be the only one here!

[the muffled sounds of footsteps can be ( Read more... )

[For the first few moments of this feed, you'll be greeted with an image of a small, dainty fingers clasping the "screen" of the seal tightly. This only lasts for a couple of seconds, though: after a small sigh and what appears to be a moment of hesitation, the image of a young girl with pinkish-red hair covered by a large hat appears ( Read more... )

*An image pops up on the seal you're currently holding. It's the image of a small, short boy. His clothes are ragged with some holes torn in them. Genis himself is without a scratch though, luckily enough. He seems a bit dazed and confused for someone that just showed up here ( Read more... )

[The scene is moving quickly as Rose seems to be flying and  leaping around Splendor at about as breakneck a speed as her magical thirteen year old body will take her. Of course, that's difficult to discern as the eclipse has made it...pretty dark. In fact, you could almost call it...
Grimdark.]

I have to appreciate this establishment's sagacious ( Read more... )

[For some who might be used to seeing clueless people wander around Splendor at this point, Presea is...not one of those people. Well she is slightly confused, but she isn't showing much of this.

Finally, she looks down at her Seal.]

...This place is dark.

[There's the sound of shuffling on the Seals, signaling that she's starting to walk ( Read more... )
